LabQuest Interfaces for Motion, Forces and Energy
In alignment with the current application of technology in the physics classroom, the next phase of implementation in the program is to allow for students to measure and record data outside of the bounds of the classroom. A brand new technology has been introduced by Vernier in the form of the LabQuest interface. The LabQuest […]
Optimization of Science Probes using a Smart Board
Over the past few years, the science department through a variety of NPEF grants has successfully incorporated the use of a variety of probes, CBL’s (computer based labs), ProScopes, multimedia projectors and video capture into the course curriculum. This grant provides for two SMART Boards to improve the conceptual understanding of the student and increase […]
Investigating the Biological World Using ProScopes – Phase 2
The Biology Department will expand on the success of probes and ProScopes that were purchased with NPEF grants over the past three years. This grant is for additional ProScopes, or digital microscopes. The digital images can be displayed on a computer monitor or be projected onto a screen. These digital microscopes provide immediate images that […]
International Festival
The International Festival is a bi-annual event that offers a simulated world tour for students district-wide and the community. Live performances of traditional dancing and drumming have been an exciting feature of this program. Countries from the four corners of the earth have been represented by student booths offering a smattering of the authentic experience […]
Proscopes & Video Presentations
The Biology Department will expand on the success of probes that were purchased with NPEF grants over the past two years, this year adding digital microscopes, called ProScopes, that provide digital images that can be displayed on a computer monitor or projected onto a screen. These digital microscopes create immediate images that can be captured, […]
